In my opinion, nothing empowers like knowledge. To be informed is to be transformed, and to be uninformed is to be deformed. Information is both gateway for man’s advancement and the cure for all his frustrations.
Information is the key factor to man’s success in the race of life. You cannot fail with facts. Every candidates write down things in the examination all, but only those who have the facts get the marks. There is no substitute for information in your quest for change of position; not even intercession can be substitute for information.
Being informed is not just knowing knowledge of that thing. There are many more things you know, but you don’t have a working knowledge of. Until, you know how it is applied, it holds no value.
I consider information as any part of news that influences your thought and actions. It is the force that rules the world. According to the Bible, the church of the last days will be the custodian of the highest form of information. Nothing create a future like revelation of scripture. Why? Because it has an inherent force within to bring about transformation in all areas. (Romans 12:1-12)
Your speed in life determines the quality of information available at your disposal, and the level of insight with which you are operating. You will recall how God said to Abraham, “Lift up now your eyes to the North, the South, the East and the West and all the land you see, unto you will I give it”. How far you can see determines how far you can go.
You cannot go beyond the information at your disposal. The brighter you see the faster you go. The more you are informed the greater the results you command.
I see information as a currency of destiny; it determines your purchasing power in the market of life.
Everything you are today is as result of the information of yesterday. The news you acquire, determines the moves you generate, and the moves you generate, determines the wave you cause, and the wave you cause, which determines the news you make. It is a continuous cycle.
You cannot be genuinely informed without making appropriate move. You cannot make appropriate moves without generating undeniable proofs, and you cannot generate proof without causing unquestionable waves, and you cannot cause wave without commanding attention, that is, making news.
Unfortunately, learning stop for many, as soon as they graduate from college/University. But as Abraham Lincoln said “I don’t think highly of a man who is not wise than he was yesterday”.
We live in a changing world, so you have to keep pace with current knowledge. If the information at your disposal is absolete, then it cannot produce any current results. I want to believe that tradition is the worst enemy to development because it has no regards for current knowledge.
I believe that the problem of the developing world, today, is largely that of the undeveloped resources. There is a dearth of human capital. I’m not just talking of educational qualifications, but purposeful education as well. For instance, all year round most parts of Africa is climatically conducive for agriculture, yet most parts of Africa live purely on goods imported from nations that paradoxically, for a quarter of the year, have no natural grace to plant anything because they are covered in snow.Why? Undeveloped human resources, because we are uninformed!
Henry Fold said ”Anyone who stop learning is old, either at twenty or eighty. Anyone who keeps learning stay young. The greatest thing in life is to keep your mind young.” That is, to keep one’s mind open to a new insight help in generating solutions to bugging issues.
Information demands discipline, as it doesn’t jump on people. It is only available to explorers. It is a product of an intelligent search.
Nobody is responsible for where you are, not even the devil, but you. The main problem is the lack of appropriate information. Jesus said you shall know the truth, and the truth shall set you free .
But a discovery of the truth always demands discipline.
Please, stop plagiarizing other people’s content. You’re hurting yourself and everyone else.
